I Can Make Everything Level UPchapter 686: culprit (3)

"Yeah, run away, you crazy son of a bitch," Billy said. "Run away with the tail between your legs. I didn't fall for your schemes once, and I won't fall for it again, jackass."

"Killing you and those you love will be fun…" Uvish said, and then his spectral form vanished to the stratosphere.

Billy clicked his tongue and then lost all the strength in his body again. Still, he forced himself to get up since he could tell that Zenis was also about to wake up. If he was being controlled or not, it didn't matter. He had to kill the bastard who threatened his family and friends. Still, if he gets his powers now, he will give Uvish the chance to take over his body right now… he had to do something about it, and after thinking for a while, Billy found his answer. It was probably the best way to handle the situation, so he didn't hesitate.

In the end, Billy used Zenis' blood to create some relics, and then he used his own powers to transfer Zenis' powers to those relics. Due to that, he ended up dying because of the blood loss instead of because Billy actually killed him with his own hands. Nevertheless, once he finished the job, Billy passed out the very moment he relaxed. It couldn't have been helped and he could feel that the others were approaching.

When Billy woke up, he felt the comfort of his bed. He immediately recalled what had happened before he passed out, but he didn't panic. Not to mention, his kids were also using his arms as pillows, so he couldn't move much without waking them up.

"I am kind of hungry… how much time has passed since then?" Billy wondered.

Billy looked out the window of his room, and he noticed that it was the middle of the night. It was one of the worst times to wake up since there wasn't much he could do outside or find others to talk to. Still, with his Mana Domain, Billy could tell that everyone was sleeping in their rooms. He also could feel the presence of the relics he got using Zenis' body.

"It seemed that Icarus, Lucyna, and Meryl didn't do anything stupid while I was unconscious…" Billy thought. "They also fought and protected my family and friends… while they messed up a few times, I suppose I can start to trust on them a bit more."

In any case, Billy spent the rest of the night wondering how he could explain the whole situation to his family. Based on things, he noticed that Icarus and the others told them some things, but not everything about the situation and them. That had been smart on their part… the only issue was Uvish. If Billy decides to keep his secrets, he might use them to make his family doubt him.

"Papa?" Christina asked.

While Billy was lost in thought, his kids began to wake up. Eventually, the house became lively since Christina told everyone that Billy was awake. In any case, while she was jumping around, Billy patted Hector's head since he was too shy to show too much attachment to his father. He could understand that it was a bit embarrassing. As for Helen was still sleepy, so Billy carried her in his arms while they went to see the others.

All that month of hard work paid off when Billy found his wives, and they hugged him tightly. He wanted to do some groping, but it was too early in the morning for that. Besides, his kids were seeing it.

"It is good to see you all again," Billy said. "How much time did I stay unconscious?"

"Seven days," Kate replied. "You have a lot to explain to us, Billy…"

"Maybe tomorrow, after having breakfast, I promised to them that I would spend the whole day playing with them," Billy said. "I suppose that I have to visit a lot of people and give my thanks, so I will start tonight."

Kate and Natalie had already waited for too long, and they wanted to press Billy for more answers. Still, Sarah changed their minds after massaging their shoulders.

"That can wait, right?" Sarah asked. "Billy is relaxed now, so it means that we don't have to worry about anything, for the time being, right?"

"More or less…" Billy said.

"You have to help me here…" Sarah said and then sighed.

Billy had breakfast, and he truly devoured everything that he put his eyes on. After that, he spent the whole morning playing with his kids, but since they were young, they had to take a nap after lunch. After that, he asked what Icarus, Lucyna, and Meryl had told them.

"Aside from that, I learned that someone a long time ago began to create some relics to give people some crazy powers," Billy said. "Jeannette was one of them, and Icarus found one of those, and so did Lucyna and Meryl."

"They said that they also obtained the power of the dungeon cores. Was that another power that can be obtained?" Natalie asked.

"No, it can only be obtained by those that obtained the power of the relics," Billy replied. "Since the dungeons are probably something created by that guy."

"That guy?" Kate asked.

"You guys heard that Zenis obtained the powers of several relics, right? Those powers can also be obtained by killing people like them," Billy explained. "However, that also gives the guy who created the relics the power to take over the bodies and assume a new form. My guess is that he died a long time ago and used that method to keep reviving… aside from that, I don't know the details, and I will learn more when I obtain those powers."

"Won't that make you possessed by the enemy?" Sarah asked.

"Usually, yes, but I am thinking of a way to prevent that," Billy replied. "Rest assured that I won't do anything crazy."
